   Food was good but they were packed and It was so insanely loud that I couldn't hold a conversation with my date.

   Woebetide you if you book this restaurant and just have a land line!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Back home saw 2 attempted calls and one message to confirm Res. Which I had done prior to travel as we wished to eat before 5.30 pm. Hence the sarcastic 'We knew you were coming' And given THE LOUSIEST TABLE IN THE HOUSE ! Empanadas were pretty good Gambas had been cooked some time before and warmed- very mealy-rather nasty. Not the poppy Carolina shrimp I can buy at my local supermarket!!!!!!!!!!!! Octopus fair. Branzino good but why was it sitting in a pool of spinach water. Our server Alicia was pleasant and helpful. After our wonderful supper at Prune the night before This place was an utter disappointment. We were only gone for two nights..........................................

   Excellent Spanish food - well prepared, creative small plates and paella platters. Good wine list with multiple price points. Very atmospheric décor. Extensive gin & tonic menu especially fun for a group.

   This place never disappoints. Great flavor, a nice variety of small to medium dishes, great for sharing, and laid back but attentive staff.

   They started us off by not having half the ingredients of the drinks on the special drink menu. Embarrassing for me bc I suggested the place for girls night out.The waitress had a weird attitude. Maybe she was having a bad day. The food was way over priced for tiny portions. I understand it’s tapas, but the price didn’t make sense for the tapa portion sizing. We had to order 5 dishes to feel almost full. We spent $80 each and left unsatisfied.

   The food was tasty and the atmosphere was great, but the service was terrible. Our waitress looked bored, shoved our food around the table, brought food out before our drinks, and I had to ask her and another waitress three times for a water refill before she begrudgingly came over and poured us each half a glass.

   Expensive for the quality of food. Also some of the dishes are trying to be new and hip but just fall short. Aka whipped aoli is unnecessary and gross

    We had a reservation for 6:15 and arrived promptly. Half the room has stools and half has chairs. We don't want to eat sitting on stools so asked for chairs and were told we would have to leave by 8pm. And at the time we got there the place was empty. We ordered 6 tapas and they served us so quickly that we were done by 7:15! We felt very rushed. We wont go back.
